TPUSA was and is Charlie Kirk’s baby, a child birthed through sacrifice, vision, sweat, tears, and ultimately his own blood. Today, that child is being dragged into the court of public opinion for a full-on spiritual custody battle with everyone claiming to know what’s best while pulling it in opposite directions. It’s easy to get swept up in the cultural chaos, but 1 Kings 3 gives us a spiritual lens for moments exactly like this. Two women stood before Solomon, both insisting the child was theirs. One was the true mother. The other a deceiver. But how could anyone tell the difference? Only one cried, “Give her the living baby… but don’t kill him!” The true parent would rather lose the argument than watch the child be cut in half. The false one only cared about winning, even if the child was destroyed in the process. So in this moment, for all who truly love Charlie, his mission, and his life’s work, the real question isn’t: Who yells the loudest? Who says they have receipts? Who posts the most? Who claims the moral high ground? The real question is… Who wants the child to live? Who wants the work to continue? Who is fighting for unity within the conservative movement? Who cares about the souls of the next generation? And who did Charlie personally choose and entrust to steward what he built? Those answers have a way of revealing themselves. And for those of us still carrying Charlie’s mantle, the mission hasn’t changed, the calling hasn’t dimmed, and by God’s grace, the child will not die on our watch.

Classic Vischer. Word games, rage bait, and coy responses drenched in motte-and-bailey reasoning. The defensible point is easy. Jesus says God is spirit (John 4:24). The fact that the Son took on flesh as a man tells us nothing about the Father having male anatomy. Then comes the insinuation that taking God’s fatherhood seriously elevates masculinity and “demotes femininity.” That’s where the woke framing does its work. It recasts a truth Jesus revealed as a problem for women. The early church was perfectly capable of making these distinctions. Gregory of Nazianzus explained that “Father” names the Father’s relation to the Son. The Nicene Creed confesses the Son as eternally begotten of the Father. Chalcedon distinguishes that eternal begetting from his birth to Mary in time. All of that follows the logic of Jesus’ own prayer in John 17. The Father loved the Son before the foundation of the world. And “demotes femininity to something created and human”? Masculinity is created and human too. God made us male and female, called his creation good, and gave both sexes the dignity of bearing his image. Where exactly is the demotion? “Bad theology creates bad anthropology.” Agreed. So start with the words Christ gave us and the world God actually made. Jesus taught us to pray “Our Father.” Genesis tells us whose image every woman bears. If your politics make those truths sound like rivals, your politics need correcting.
I'm amazed at the # of Christians who believe, since God took on the human form of a biological male, we can conclude that God the Father is eternally male. Also amazed at the anger generated by pointing out this is not historic Christian teaching.

The students at @biolau showed up and gave @TPUSA an incredible welcome at our first-ever event on campus today. Thank you to @PresidentCorey and Biola for hosting my Pick Up the Mic and making room for honest conversation. I hope it’s the first of many.

This!
A couple things on this, because progressives use this to bully and intimidate (conservative) pastors into silence: 1) While I am very clear about the evil of many policies currently being advanced by the DNC and CLEAR moral asymmetry between the proposed policies of the parties, I do not endorse candidates right now. 2) Progressives selectively report churches to the FFRF every year. You'll never see this article about the (primarily AA) churches Democrats are in every week leading up to an election. It's an attempt at street-level lawfare. 3) Articles like this are toothless and you should just chuckle at them. We have a lawyer that argues Religious Liberty cases before SCOTUS at Lakepointe. No church in US History has ever had their tax exempt status removed for a sermon, much less for one in which a candidate was not even endorsed. 4) In the words of a couple knowledgable guys I consulted with, it's a harassment and intimidation tactic to silence pastors. Intent of this post isn't to be combative, but I have realized this fear has intimidated some pastor friends and after looking into it, wanted to remove that fear. BOTTOM LINE: You are 100% free to be clear with your people about the (radical) moral asymmetry between the current proposed policies and ideologies of the parties AND to encourage your people to vote as an application of the command to be “the salt of the earth” and to “seek the welfare of the city” and to “live your neighbor”.

Wait she’s from my state? Hoosiers, what are we doing here?
“WE HAVE GUNS TOO!!!” Guys, you will not be the same after listening to this Democrat candidate, Jaime West, who is running for Fayette County Council in Indiana! She makes Kamala Harris look like Einstein!

Morse Tan is an American citizen and a former U.S. Ambassador who is currently barred from leaving South Korea and is facing a hearing on October 16th that could land him in a South Korean jail cell. No American should face this. We urge Washington to act without delay, and that Seoul lift the ban, end the prosecutions, and let him come home. @SecRubio @FaithAdvisory @realDonaldTrump @CissieGLynch @Paula_White @USAmbROK

Political participation isn’t reserved for the secular. Members of the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church of Australia volunteered in the 2025 election as private citizens, and now face a government inquiry. Christians, like all citizens, must be free to serve in democratic life without intimidation. We are going to need the full force and support of all those who value the freedom of the faithful to engage this! Ignore it, and don’t be surprised when this comes to a city near you!

Actual Satan worship….the beastly kingdom on full display.
HOLY SH*T @City_of_Ottumwa in Iowa opened up their most recent city council meeting with a prayer to SATAN. "Let us pray. Dear dark father... HAIL SATAN" WTF is wrong with these people???

OK, having a debate with friends, does anybody have any substantiated evidence that school systems were or are providing litter boxes for kids who identified as furries?

Only 56% of voting-age Christian adults voted in 2024. But Muslims? 80% showed up. That isn’t Muslims outvoting Christians. That’s millions of Christians who could vote and refused to do so. You can shrug it off and say, “so what, Muslims are only 1% of the population while Christians are still the majority.” That misses the point entirely. The gap isn’t about one group outvoting the other right now, it’s about millions of Christians who could vote and don’t. When the people who share the moral framework that built this country stay home, that framework slowly stops mattering regardless of how big their numbers look on paper. Inaction hands the future to whoever does show up. For the Christian, there is no excuse. Our duty isn't just to pray for the nation we’re in but to work for its prosperity. It isn't one or the other, it's both (Jeremiah 29:7).

Proud of you @WillyRice !! Keep standing!!
FAITH IN ACTION: Southern Baptist Convention president fires back at calls for pastors to stay out of politics, urging Christian leaders to 'step up' ahead of midterm elections. Willy Rice argues that abortion, marriage, gender identity and immigration are deeply theological issues that demand a pastoral voice in the public square. Rice says the political and theological left never withdrew from politics — and that their silence created a vacuum conservative Christians are now paying for.

If some pastors are unable to stand, should every pastor therefore sit while preaching, lest standing be mistaken for the source of the gospel’s effectiveness? Of course not. What a ridiculous argument! Now I have no idea what this particular sermon was about, but there is nothing inherently wrong with using a strong visual illustration to make a point. An illustration isn’t wrong simply because someone else may be physically unable to perform it. The power is in the gospel, not in the preacher’s posture, mobility, or props. This isn’t a serious critique of preaching; it’s finding a theological problem with a ladder.
If gimmicks like this make for better, more impactful preaching, does that mean pastors who are, say, crippled and unable to climb ladders or do not drive luxury cars are less effective, and their congregants are not really being fed? Asking for a friend.

What’s up with all the conservatives posting clickbait headlines lately? Let’s clean it up, boys. Sensationalism might get clicks, but it doesn’t build trust or credibility. We need principles over panic, truth over traffic, and substance over outrage. If we want people to trust us, we have to be more committed to getting it right than getting attention.

Same and 100% agree.
I love my @Tesla I got earlier this year. I love FSD. I use FSD 90%+ of the time, and that’s increasing daily; it’s really more like 98% these days. My only regret is not purchasing a Tesla 10 years sooner. It’s weird to say, but Tesla and FSD are literally life-changing. I really mean it. If you are skeptical of Tesla or FSD, please take a test drive. I promise you’ll love both and you’ll wish you bought a Tesla 10 years earlier.
